About this listen

The Beyond the Training Podcast takes you further and farther after a learning or development session. Many of us have been to the diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) training at work, school or in some virtual setting. And, sure, you looked at the slide deck, took the notes and have some screenshots you might look at later. Still, there's more conversations to be had, more concepts to uncover, and certainly more to learn.
Join Jamie and Mr. RAWbert, two DEI practitioners with decades of training, learning and development experience - every week as they share some of the transformational and pivotal moments from recent work with individuals and groups from around the country, working hard to do what they can to move from focusing on intent, to realizing great impact.
Beyond the Training is brought to you by the co-founders of Seven Focus, a multi-faceted team that works in partnership with you as you act on your diversity, inclusion and equity-focused goals, engaging you to consider the different layers at play - experiences and understandings - so you succeed, long after our team is gone.

    What, then, is the intersection between the language and culture of fashion and the work of diversity, equity and inclusion?
    In this episode, we welcome fashion professional, Malcolm to the conversation to discuss how he sees his world and the work of inclusion in it.

    For Your Consultation/Consideration: Stop shudding on each other!
    You read that right...think about what you really mean when you use the word "should" in a sentence or question. What expectations are you trying to communicate? Are they fair? Are they inclusive?
    Most folx don't appreciate getting shud on, so let's work to keep that from happening.
